Friday Morning Pictures

This morning is a stay away from work day. It is so nice to wake up in the morning look at the clock and say to yourself..."I don't have to go in today". And that is exactly what I said. Sherri was up and headed to the kitchen to make coffee and I was not too far behind. We do have plans for this day but non of them include showing up at a job.

Last night we were up until 1:00 am working on Sherri's Face Book page. She has 4 friends...is that cool or what. If you want to be Sherri's friend just go to Face Book...I have been trying for years to be her friend...LOL There is so much on these computers now days...one has so much to keep one occupied. I worked on my Yahoo Messenger. Dee got me started and Netters and Debbie helped me finish. I still don't know how to put my picture on the chat page. I know some kind soul will come along and help ole Speedy out. I really have to find a picture of me that would be worth putting on a Avatar.

This morning Sherri is on her computer reading journals. She is wishing she and I were down on the coast with all our friends. We know that we will be there soon enough. Next year we will work out schedule out and see if we can spend some time down there.

I have a few more projects to complete in my shop when I get to Wills Point. I also have to run my electrical in conduit outside for the RV plug. I have to fix the wiring on my desk so that it is not piled up behind the computer. Under the desk I am going to install a shelf so that I can put all the surge protectors on it and then put a door that closes to hide them. This will look much better and the desk will be clean on top.

Sherri will be looking after the two little ones this weekend. Jennifer is headed off to do her squad car driving test. They have some kind of obstacle course they have to maneuver through without hitting anything. I hope she does good. She is so excited about becoming a law officer. I worry of course but then I worry about too much sometimes. I have a few pictures of my bays that Sherri and I organized. We are getting so ready to leave out and I think that we have narrowed our stuff down quite well. I know we have reduced out weight down considerably. We want to squeeze every ounce of mileage out of our diesel that we can. I get about 17 to 18 in town not towing and about 8 to 9 towing. We are getting closer to 10 the more the diesel gets broke in. We only have 17,000 miles on it now and should not have over 20,000 when we leave out. My Tech told me that we would have to have 50,000 to see a difference.

Our place in East Texas on our daughters land. We have a barn just to the left of the trailer that Sherri and I have halved . She has a side for her office and setting area...which the kids will use to watch TV and play instead of the trailer...if you know what I mean....LOL. The other half is mine and I have a wood shop in there that is small but with all the power tools on wheels I can move them in and out when I need them.... more on that at a later date.

The Front Bay holds all my tools and supplies for the trailer. I have plastic cabinets with drawers to put Light bulbs and batteries in. Also my outdoor faucet adapters and electric adapters are in drawers for easy access. Fishing boat motor oars and supplies are located next to tackle box and fish nets. I keep my fishing poles in the main bay hanging on the walls out of harms way. Which reminds me I need a new rig for retirement...Next project get new fishing pole...then go fishing.

My side bay has the new tray in it and Sherri got us totes to put all our needs in. This keeps everything organized and leaves nothing loose and hard to find. Each tote has specific items in them so we can find them when we need to. The front tote here has my outdoor electric grill in it along with all the tools to cook with. Also have some spices and picnic supplies in there all for outdoor use. I have a gas cook top for cooking stews and chili's outside so we don't heat up and smell up the house. I have to keep the totes stacked low on this side because of the outside entertainment center which is something I thought I would never need. Now that I have it I like it and can't wait for warmer weather so I can set outside BBQ and watch TV...Cool!

Well that about sums up that project. I will have to get pictures today of the shop and those upcoming projects that have to be completed before take off.

OK I guess I best sign off here and get ready to head out. Sure have enjoyed speaking with you all today and I know that we will see each other very soon Somewhere in Time.
